What if most of your life isn't governed by rules at all — and that's actually the point?
In Ephesians 5, Paul gives his spiritual children not a longer list of restrictions, but something far more liberating: guiding lights for navigating the wide-open freedom of life in Christ. Be wise. Discern God's will. And above all — be filled with the Spirit. In this episode, Evan Wickham unpacks what it actually means to be Spirit-filled, and why Paul contrasts it with getting drunk. Both involve an outside influence. But one makes you less yourself. The other makes you more.
The Holy Spirit isn't a religious experience reserved for a certain kind of Christian. He's the Personal Presence of Jesus — living with you, shaping you, available to you right now. The question isn't whether He's there. It's whether you're awake to it.
